When You select "Edited Records" on a form, you get the nasty little circle with a line through it.

What I would like to be able to do is test for this before any typing occurs.

I guess the best place to put this code is in the "Current" or "timer" event.

Problem is.... How do you test whether a record is locked?

Once you can get a returned value on whether it is locked or not, you can make a big picture, 3d animation, Virtual headset frontal lobe pulse brain modifier or (and probably more sensible) a message letting the user know they cant edit a record BEFORE they start to type away..

Any suggestions?
